Free Grace

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 9, 1859

THERE are two sins of man that are bred in the bone, and that continually come out in the flesh. One is self-dependence and the other is self-exaltation. It is very hard, even for the best of men, to keep themselves from the first error. The holiest of Christi…

The Believer’s Challenge

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 5, 1859

THE protest of an innocent man against the charge of an accuser may well be strong and vehement.

Dilemma and Deliverance

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 4, 1859

THERE are many men who are exceedingly well-read in heathen mythologies, who can tell you the history of any of the heathen gods, but who at the same time know very little of the history of JEHOVAH, and cannot rehearse His mighty acts. In our schools to this d…

Am I Sought Out?

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 23, 1863

THE first meaning of our text is very clear. Here is a prophecy, that as Jerusalem, having been despoiled of her beauty by her enemies, was for a long time forsaken and worthy to be called, “A city which no man seeketh after,” so, in a brighter day, her glory…

Forward! Forward! Forward!

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 18, 1863

SPIRITUAL men, in their distresses, turn at once to prayer, even as the stag when hunted takes to flight. Prayer is a never-failing resort, it is sure to bring a blessing with it. Even apart from the answer of our supplications, the very exercise of prayer is…

“Lead Us Not Into Temptation”

Charles Spurgeon • May 17, 1863

CERTAIN Psalms are entitled “Songs of Degrees.” Certainly the prayer before us might be called a Prayer of Degrees. It begins, where all true prayer must commence, with the spirit of adoption, “Our Father.” There is no acceptable prayer until we can say with t…

Christ Lifted Up

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 5, 1857

IT was an extraordinary occasion upon which the Savior uttered these words. It was the crisis of the world. We very often speak of the “present crisis of affairs,” and it is very common for persons of every period to believe their own age to be the crisis and…

The Heavenly Race

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 11, 1858

WE are continually insisting upon it from day to day that salvation is not of works, but of grace. We lay this down as one of the very first doctrines of the Gospel. “Not of works, lest any man should boast.” “By grace are ye saved, through faith, and that not…

Self-Examination

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 10, 1858

I HAD intended to address you this morning from the third title given to our blessed Redeemer in the verse we have considered twice before, “Wonderful, Counsellor, the mighty God ,” but owing to excruciating pain and continual sickness, I have been unable to g…

The Minister’s Farewell

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 11, 1859

WHEN Paul was parting from his Ephesian friends, who had come to bid him farewell at Miletus, he did not ask of them a commendation of his ability, he did not request of them a recommendation for his fervid eloquence, his profound learning, his comprehensive t…

Perfection in Faith

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 2, 1859

THINK of this morning’s text—“The LORD WILL perfect that which concerneth me.” Is it not very grateful to observe, that what is just in one part of Scripture presented to us as a matter of faith, is in another place stated as a matter of fact? Think of this ev…

The Jeer of Sarcasm, and the Retort of Piety

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 8, 1860

YOU will remember the remarkable passage of Sacred History which I related to you this morning, how David sought on one occasion to bring up the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim to Jerusalem, but neglecting God’s law, they put the ark upon a cart, instead of car…

None But Jesus—First Part

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 17, 1861

THE way of salvation is stated in Scripture in the very plainest terms, and yet, perhaps, there is no truth about which more errors have been uttered than concerning the faith which saves the soul. Well has it been proved by experience that all doctrines of Ch…

Believing with the Heart

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 12, 1863

EVERY star in heaven yields its ray of light to cheer the mariner upon the watery waste, but there are leaders among that sparkling host—stars of the first magnitude—whose golden lamps are so dexterously hung, and withal trimmed with such excessive care, that…

The Treasure of Grace

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 22, 1860

AS is Isaiah among the prophets, so is Paul among the apostles, each stands forth with singular prominence, raised up by God for a conspicuous purpose, and shining as a star of extraordinary brilliance. Isaiah spoke more of Christ, and described more minutely…

Zechariah’s Vision of Joshua the High Priest

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 22, 1865

THE original intention of this vision was to foretell the revival of the Jewish state after its long depression through the Babylonish captivity. Joshua, the high priest, with his tattered garments, must be looked upon as the type of the Jewish people in their…

Reigning Grace

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 26, 1860

I SHALL not pretend to enter into the fullness of this text, but merely select that topic, “Grace reigns through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.” Our apostle represents man as being subject to two great kings. Sin is the grim tyrant,…

The Glory of Christ—Beheld!

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 20, 1861

I CANNOT refrain from mentioning an incident connected with the perusal of the first chapter of John. I suppose there is not a passage in God’s Word which has not at some time or other been blessed to the conversion of a soul. Even the fifth chapter of Genesis…

Man’s Weakness and God’s Anointing

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 9, 1860

YOU will remember that David was secretly anointed king over Israel by Samuel, but he waited many a weary year before the crown actually rested upon his head. For a long time he was an exile from the very country of which he was afterwards to be the sovereign.…

The Destroyer Destroyed

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 6, 1857

IN God’s original empire everything was happiness, and joy, and peace. If there be any evil, any suffering and pain, that is not God’s work. God may permit it, overrule it, and out of it educe much good, but the evil comes not of God. He Himself stands pure an…

Plenteous Redemption

Charles Spurgeon

REDEMPTION is a word which has gladdened many ears, when there was no heavenly sound in its blessed chime. Apart from any theological use of it, the word is a very sweet one, and has been melodious to many hearts.

The Immutability of Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 3, 1858

IT is well that there is one person who is the same. It is well that there is one stable rock amidst the changing billows of this sea of life, for how many and how grievous have been the changes of last year?

The Blood of the Everlasting Covenant

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 2, 1859

ALL God’s dealings with men have had a covenant character. It has so pleased Him to arrange it that He will not deal with us except through a covenant, nor can we deal with Him except in the same manner. Adam in the garden was under a covenant with God and God…

The Roaring Lion

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 17, 1861

SATAN, who is called by various names in the Scriptures, all descriptive of his bad qualities, was once an angel of God, perhaps one of the chief among the fiery ones—
